  • Patent number: 11503656
    Abstract: There is provided a communication apparatus. A first communication unit receives an advertise signal from an external apparatus. A second communication unit wirelessly communicates with the external apparatus by using a predetermined protocol. A control unit determines whether the external apparatus supports the predetermined protocol on the basis of the advertise signal from the external apparatus. If it is determined that the external apparatus does not support the predetermined protocol, the control unit performs control so that a request to start encrypted communication is sent to the external apparatus via the first communication unit. If it is determined that the external apparatus supports the predetermined protocol, the control unit performs control so that a request to start unencrypted communication is sent to the external apparatus via the first communication unit.
